Given:

Triangles ABC and PQR

AB = AC

∠C = ∠P

∠B = ∠Q

Formula used:

For two triangles to be congruent by ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) criterion, two angles and the included side must be equal.

Calculation:

Since AB = AC, ∠C = ∠P, and ∠B = ∠Q, both triangles are isosceles.

However, we do not have information about the length of sides or the exact measures of the angles to conclude congruence.

∴ The correct answer is option (4).
